Hi Jean-Marc, Thank you for your detailed input and review on this idea. It indeed looks to fit well within the existing scheme as a more refined urban territorial subdivision.
place = city/town > suburb > neighbourhood > city_block/block / plot The trouble is there is no definition yet of city_block/block / plot, only the current usage. But current usage could be quickly overwhelmed if anything is agreed upon, documented and heavily used. For reference: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/107 was rejected for rendering at openstreetmap-carto but maybe the case can be re-opened later. If there is a need. To Séverin, For your particular case with your students and considering your time frame I would say: IMO it is taggable, no need to avoid in OSM. Go ahead. My preference is either place=block or place=plot. Pick as you wish and set the trend. The hard work is the mapping, tags can be modified if consensus and documentation actually appear.
